None of what you said is true. Assault rifles were effectively banned for civilians by the national firearms act in 1934, and reinforced by the firearm owners protection act in 1986.
You seem to be confusing “assault rifle”, which has a legal definition and are illegal nationally, with “assault weapon” which is a poorly defined term (it’s basically a “scary looking gun” ban) and no longer illegal federally since the 1994 AWB expired in 2004.
